Smallbore and Pistol Cartridge lever rifle silhouette match this weekend. Bring your lever guns or bring whatever you have if you are a beginner. You can even bring a scoped .22 if you want.
When: Sunday, June 1, 2014 - Range opens about 8:30 AM
Where: Ascension Parish Sheriff's Range, Gonzales (Across the street from Lamar Dixon)
What: Lever rifle silhouette (called Cowboy Lever Action silhouette) is shot with (mostly) lever rifles and open sights (no scopes). It is NOT Cowboy Action shooting where you have to dress like a cowboy and have a western nickname). It's shot on larger targets than the scoped silhouette game. We are shooting Smallbore Cowboy rifle (any tube-fed .22 rifle but you are welcome to shoot whatever you bring) and Pistol Cartridge Lever guns (rifles chambered in pistol calibers like .357 mag and .44 mag - also .22LR and .22 mag) The object is to shoot a steel target off a rail. It's lots of fun.
Equipment needed: Any .22 rifle is fine. Also ammo and ear plugs. If you have a .22 mag rifle or a pistol cartridge rifle, bring it. You can even bring a pistol out and shoot it if you want. There is a $8 entry fee but if it's your first time you can probably get free entry (or I'll pay your entry fee)
Come out and try it!
